The newest version of Touchpoint Gallery is available! While we’re very excited, we’re stuck in one of those situations where we have to follow some rules before we can tell you everything.

Let me back up for a minute. For those of you familiar with Touchpoint Gallery you know that our photo viewing application has two main components, Templates and Picture Sources. Templates are the quick and easy way to change the look and feel of your Galleries by choosing the animated scene that your digital pics will appear in. Recently we’ve released a couple of holiday themed Templates. You can check everything out on our Templates page.

Picture Sources are the areas built into Touchpoint Gallery that let you choose - well - the source of your digital pics. A Picture Source could be local files on your hard drive, or those on your Flickr account among others. You can see a complete list on our Picture Sources page. You choose the Picture Source and the Template and it all comes together.

Recently we’ve added an exciting new Picture Source to Touchpoint Gallery that will allow you to use photos from a popular social networking site. However, we can’t quite mention the name of the social network in our PR material (yes, that includes this blog) until we get permission from them. You can read more about the rules we have to follow in Section 6. Publicity; Trademark Usage:

The Rules

We’ll tell you more about it once we hear back from them. In the mean time download the new version of Touchpoint Gallery and let us know what you think. If you haven’t figured out what the new Picture Source is yet, check back here in 3 to 5 business days.

It is Template release time again! Trick or Treat, our Halloween themed Template, is the first ‘seasonal’ Template release from us. Along with our regular year-round-friendly releases, we thought it would be fun to add in a few Templates designed for various holidays and celebrations. And while we’re sure you will enjoy it up to Halloween, we like to think that some of you might use it all year round. It’s a shame for it to only come on for a week or so a year. Anyway, check it out. We hope you like it.

We released a new version of Touchpoint Gallery today. Download it and rejoice!

This release features support for a new file format which we call Gallery files. We’re using these files to provide add-ons to Touchpoint Gallery after you’ve installed it, such as additional Templates and Picture Sources.

The first such add-on is a new Template: Floral Scrapbook. This is the first in a line of scrapbook-themed Templates we plan to produce. It is available to all registered users. After installing the new version of Touchpoint Gallery, just download and open the Gallery file for this Template and it will be installed in no time.

Two other registered Templates that were previously included in the installer, Grand Gallery and Sky Fall, can now be downloaded seperately from our Templates Add-Ons page.

In addition, we’ve heard from a lot of users who want the Touchpoint Gallery experience on their Windows Vista systems. Well, today is the day we roll out full Windows Vista support.

Stay tuned for more new Templates and Picture Sources coming soon.
